Title: Who's Hunting Hogs/Javies this winter?
Post by: Izzy on November 08, 2014, 07:02:00 PM
Thought I might ask to see who's going. I haven't booked a hunt yet but I can see one in my near future.

Our second feral pig peak is right when deer ends, and its a refreshing time to just bumble along the creeks after so much sneaking for deer all season. I'll be out after them!

I definitely plan on it.  My buddy is lining up a different spot from where we normally go, so it should be an adventure.

I've got a few trips planned. I'll be hunting in several spots in South Carolina. Manchester State Forest, Sumter National Forest in Abbeville, Woodbury WMA in Marion, Wee Tee WMA in Georgetown, Wambaw WMA in Francis Marion Nat'l Forest in Charleston County, and finally, if I have time at Wadaco Mtn in Pickens County.  

Wadaco Mtn will be the toughest hunt to get on some hogs. There are a lot of them, but they are very tough to hunt in that terrain.

Just back from a morning hunt, I smelled them but not been able to see anything. I hunt wild boars almost all year around but just on the other side of the big pond.

Five of us, including my 16 yr old Grandson, will be hunting West Texas near Marfa for our first Javelina hunt in March.

We're stoked.

for those of you looking for a warm adventure, we can help you out.

We are starting to fill and have a lot of return clients.

We cater to and have seen roughly 90% trad guys.

Shots are nice and short to the feeders or we spot and stalk.

Free bowfishing in the canals.

I live in Florida from Jan thru May 1 and Jim guides the off-season folks.

We have tons of fun.

Lots of references.

Visit our website.

I'm hunting hogs every time I go out, whether the primary quarry is deer, coyotes, or whatever. Hogs are when/where you find them around here, and they're always fair game. I guess I'm "fortunate" to have hogs to hunt... although they are destructive and a nuisance in many areas, at the present time anyway we seem to have enough of them to be interesting but not enough that they're a real problem - yet...

Heading back to west Texas again the middle of Dec.  This will probably be my 12th - 14th year doing it - javelina's.  It is really a blast - always have to take lots of arrows though.  There are usually 6-8 of us trad guys that go.  I have become VERY good friends with the people on the ranch, and they charge next to nothing for us for a week.  They have a regular hunting camp with buildings, bunk house and all the cooking supplies there.  Just take your food.  We always have the ranch people over for supper every night - they appreciate it.  Then have a few adult beverages before they drive back to the main ranch houses.  We also take a gift each year for them.  Nothing huge, but they always remember that we treat them right and with respect.  Every year they invite us back.

I've been out in the Sumter National Forest in Abbeville for the last few evenings. It's been about 20 years since I've hunted this area, so I'm basically having to relearn the area. I've been slowly moving through the creek and river drainages, not really spending a whole lot of time in any one particular area.

So far, I've have seen a ton of sign and caught a few fleeting glimpses of several hogs. Practically every bit of water has pig sign around it. This evening, I found the freshest yet. It had to have been less than an hour or two old. The wind wasn't in my favor though, so I'm going to try tomorrow in the same spot from the opposite direction.

I bet I've seen over 100 turkeys in the last week, too. Those suckers are everywhere.

It will be my 13th annual trip to hunt hogs with a bunch of friends the first week of January with Hoppy Kempher. Always a great time with a lot of action.
